Good conversation, both sides are well read and reasoned. really highlights the differences between the pre and post internet era, esp how the internet killed hobbies.
The one area Marc has a blindspot in is the value of tradition or radically different value systems. He tries to rationalize religion in the frame of “well people were just bored in the old days”, which highlights his inability to break out from this frame of the enlightenment or modernity. In the past people did have completely different value systems, which multiculturalism should educate others in, but we all know is really just a fake cover for wokism.
Generally, the value of obligation & physical areas were people can gather and meet are underrated. Hanania points out how being forced to be around people in physical spaces helps to build relationships and then form marriages. This techno-utopia vision that Marc kind of sides with were everything you do it opt-in and we are all in cyberspace is off-putting. Being a little reductive in Marc’s views, but for summary purposes.
Overall technology, like the internet, is just another tool and it’s up to us to determine how we want to use it, in accordance with our values. Unfortunately with Christianity and church attendance on the decline and with mainstream culture being self-flagellating, we have a wave of nihilism taking over the masses. No wonder we are being ruled by the algorithm and the current thing
Two main thoughts from this piece:
Globalization has the whole world one minor broke cable away from collapse. The interconnectedness of everything (ex. supply chains) has completely eliminated any resiliency and regional differences in culture, which contributes towards this one world mono-culture, which is increasingly deranged, woke, and fundamentally demands a disconnect from reality . And increasingly the elites with this dominant woke ideology are incapable of maintaining the systems and institutions that keep society functioning, they are burning the accumulated capital of our ancestors. The problem with globalization in this context, is their failures have the ability to drag us all down with them instead of having isolated failures.
Does this whole “new world order”, liberal project, democracy, glob0homo or GNC, take your pick, survive without these institutions (think power companies, oil companies, water companies, groceries, etc). Europe will be the test, will people really tolerate this glob0homo regime if they can’t even warm their houses? History indicates failures to provide basic quality of life services will prelude regime change, but regime changes are often bring chaos, death, and set back the progress of humanity hundreds of years unless there is an alternative shadow power lying in wait ready to take over. There doesn’t seem to be one in America, even the right is too disorganized to provide a real counter institutions to the left, at least currently. We might get ride of glob0homo, but at what cost … This seems inevitable at this point, so the accelerationist in me what’s to see what is on the other side and build toward that future.
Fun fact: Rome actually couldn’t sustain itself off its native grain supply in the farmlands around the city, for the reason the transportation infrastructure wasn’t there and couldn’t handle the volume needed. This led to Rome relying on foreign grain imports from the Mediterranean and hence heavily affect their foreign policy. Captaining grain ships was not a very profitable business by the way (source: Blood and Soil page 78ish)
In what the late Saddam Hussein once dubbed “the great Satan,” roughly two-thirds of the United States enlisted military corps is white . . . The fat, bulbous U.S. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin once confirmed in a 93-2 vote of the U.S. Senate, immediately embarked on a whirlwind media tour of duty, telling the pseudo-secular sycophants in the state-controlled tabloid press and state-controlled television talk show circuit about how the U.S. Army is full of bad racist white men.
Senior Defense Department leaders celebrating yet another Pride Month at the Pentagon sounding the alarm about the rising number of state laws they say target the LGBTQ+ community, warned the trend is hurting the feelings of the armed forces . . . “LGBTQ plus and other diverse communities are under attack, just because they are different. Hate for hate’s sake,” said Gil Cisneros, the Pentagon’s undersecretary for personnel and readiness, who also serves as DoD’s chief diversity and inclusion officer.
And now the U.S. Army is doing ads begging for more young white males? What happened?
Even with a full-on declaration of war from Congress, and even if Gavin Newsome could be cheated into the Oval Office by ZOG somehow, with Globohomo diversity brigades going door-to-door looking to impress American children into military service, they will be met with armed, well-trained opposition, the invasion at the Southern border is going full tilt, and the drugs are flowing in like never before.
Get ready for it . . . the fat old devil worshipping fags on Capitol Hill, on Wall Street, in Whitehall, and in Brussels are in no shape to fight a war themselves, and most Americans are armed to the teeth with their own guns . . . NATO hates heterosexual white men . . . they said so themselves . . .
